1924 Mercer Series 6<\/h1>\n

The Series 6 was the final model produced by Mercer until the last car was produced in 1925. It was distinctly powered by a 6-cylinder engine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Less then 10 examples of Mercer’s final car currently survive making them exceptionally rare.<\/p>\n

Our feature example was the very last car of Mercer’s production and the only car to leave the factory with 4-wheel brakes. It was retained by the same family for over 70 years until being sold to Johnny Crowell.<\/p>\n

Corwell commissioned a complete restoration by Adams Custom Engines for a debut at the 2012 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in the official Mercer display.<\/p>\n
